Start Your Own Press

In order to do that, you will need to start a self-publishing company. For many people this can be a daunting task. The Self-Publishing Guide is a concise, step-by-step playbook that will lead you through the process of starting your own print-on-demand press — covering things like local business regulations, ISBNs, and registering with the Library of Congress.
